In December I was asked to put together a compilation of Boston artists as a soundtrack for the Boston Music Awards’ celebration.
While no means comprehensive (there are some noticeable absences), it is a cross-section of some of Boston’s finest if not quirkiest musicians over the years, and includes some of the best songs to emanate from this fair city.
As we await the release of new music in 2011, hear the diversified talent that is Boston.

Oedipus Podcast # 4 by Oedipus
For anyone who heard Oedipus with the Clash, they weren’t all that fond of a certain Declan MacManus. In the spirit of fair play, an interview with Elvis Costello, Nick Lowe, Oedipus, and ‘BCN DJ Tracy Roach from 1978.
Note: this interview isn’t actually available here on this page. But you’ll soon be able to hear it on Oedipus’ mobile app, or you can view the interview here on The Oedipus Project’s YouTube channel. We’re spanning all platforms, media, and genres in order to share great music from people you know and people you’ll want to know.
To give you a little something, and remain slightly topical, here’s an Elvis Costello track that seems appropriate…
